Nick Foles Fantasy

Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Marrone thinks that quarterback Nick Foles (collarbone) will return to practice next week. Foles broke his collarbone in the season opener and has given way to rookie Gardner Minshew. It's good news that Foles is progressing, but even if he returns to practice next week, he'll likely need at least several weeks before he's an option to replace Minshew under center. With the way Minshew has been playing, don't expect the Jags to rush Foles back. Foles should be stashed away in two-QB leagues, but you can likely leave him to the waiver wire everywhere else for now.

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Nick Foles (collarbone) is targeting a Week 11 return to the team when the team faces the Indianapolis Colts. Jacksonville made Foles their big acquisition of the offseason, and while rookie Gardner Minshew looked solid in his NFL debut, the team is expected to have Foles back in the starting lineup when he's eligible to return. Regardless of which quarterback is under center, the situation in Jacksonville doesn't allow for their quarterback to ever really be ranked as more than a matchup-dependent QB2, but Foles does have the higher floor of the two passers.

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Nick Foles (collarbone) is loosely targeting a Week 11 return, according to a source. Depending on how his bone heals, it's expected to be around a 10- to 12-week recovery. You are only holding onto Foles if you're in a league that starts two quarterbacks. In his absence, rookie Gardner Minshew will run the offense, beginning in Week 2 against the Texans. He's a weak QB2 option in the starting role, and fantasy owners must downgrade all of Jacksonville's skill players as well.
